Answer:
$40
Step-by-step explanation:
If he spent $40 and has none left that means he currently has $0.
If you subtract $40 - b = $0
b = $40
Answer:
where is the figure
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct question is
<span>Keiko sold 3 less than three-fourths of his sister’s sales. Which expression represents what Keiko sold?
Let
S----------------> </span><span>the amount that Keiko's Sister sold
</span>K----------------> the amount that Keiko sold
we know that
Keiko sold 3 less than three-fourths of his sister’s sales
K=(3/4)*S-3
the answer is
K=(3/4)*S-3
Let the length be x and the width be w
The perimeter will be:
2x+3w=1500
thus
3w=(1500-2x)
w=(1500-2x)/3
w=500-2/3x
The area will be:
A=x*w
A=x(500-2/3x)
A=500x-(2/3)x²
The above is a quadratic equation; thus finding the axis of symmetry we will evaluate for the value of x that will give us maximum area.
Axis of symmetry:
x=-b/(2a)
from our equation:
a=(-2/3) and b=500
thus
x=-500/[2(-2/3)]
x=375
the length will be 375 m
The width will be 250 m
